As ftrace_dump() (called by ftrace_dump_on_oops) disables interrupts as it dumps its output to the console, it can keep interrupts disabled for long periods of time. This is likely to trigger the NMI watchdog, and it can disrupt the output of critical data. Add a touch_nmi_watchdog() to each event that is written to the screen to keep the NMI watchdog from affecting the output. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

On PowerPC, FUNCTION_TRACER selects FRAME_POINTER, even though the architecture does not support it. This causes the following warning: warning: (LOCKDEP && FAULT_INJECTION_STACKTRACE_FILTER && LATENCYTOP && FUNCTION_TRACER && KMEMCHECK) selects FRAME_POINTER which has unmet direct dependencies (DEBUG_KERNEL && (CRIS || M68K || FRV || UML || AVR32 || SUPERH || BLACKFIN || MN10300) || ARCH_WANT_FRAME_POINTERS) So remove the warning by adding the extra condition "if !PPC" to FUNCTION_TRACER for FRAME_POINTER selection Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1330330101-8618-1-git-send-email-gerlando.falauto@keymile.com Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Gerlando Falauto <gerlando.falauto@keymile.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

As the ring-buffer code is being used by other facilities in the kernel, having tracing_on file disable *all* buffers is not a desired affect. It should only disable the ftrace buffers that are being used. Move the code into the trace.c file and use the buffer disabling for tracing_on() and tracing_off(). This way only the ftrace buffers will be affected by them and other kernel utilities will not be confused to why their output suddenly stopped. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Adding support to filter function trace event via perf interface. It is now possible to use filter interface in the perf tool like: perf record -e ftrace:function --filter="(ip == mm_*)" ls The filter syntax is restricted to the the 'ip' field only, and following operators are accepted '==' '!=' '||', ending up with the filter strings like: ip == f1[, ]f2 ... || ip != f3[, ]f4 ... with comma ',' or space ' ' as a function separator. If the space ' ' is used as a separator, the right side of the assignment needs to be enclosed in double quotes '"', e.g.: perf record -e ftrace:function --filter '(ip == do_execve,sys_*,ext*)' ls perf record -e ftrace:function --filter '(ip == "do_execve,sys_*,ext*")' ls perf record -e ftrace:function --filter '(ip == "do_execve sys_* ext*")' ls The '==' operator adds trace filter with same effect as would be added via set_ftrace_filter file. The '!=' operator adds trace filter with same effect as would be added via set_ftrace_notrace file. The right side of the '!=', '==' operators is list of functions or regexp. to be added to filter separated by space. The '||' operator is used for connecting multiple filter definitions together. It is possible to have more than one '==' and '!=' operators within one filter string.

Adding FILTER_TRACE_FN event field type for function tracepoint event, so it can be properly recognized within filtering code. Currently all fields of ftrace subsystem events share the common field type FILTER_OTHER. Since the function trace fields need special care within the filtering code we need to recognize it properly, hence adding the FILTER_TRACE_FN event type. Adding filter parameter to the FTRACE_ENTRY macro, to specify the filter field type for the event.

Adding perf registration support for the ftrace function event, so it is now possible to register it via perf interface. The perf_event struct statically contains ftrace_ops as a handle for function tracer. The function tracer is registered/unregistered in open/close actions. To be efficient, we enable/disable ftrace_ops each time the traced process is scheduled in/out (via TRACE_REG_PERF_(ADD|DELL) handlers). This way tracing is enabled only when the process is running. Intentionally using this way instead of the event's hw state PERF_HES_STOPPED, which would not disable the ftrace_ops. It is now possible to use function trace within perf commands like: perf record -e ftrace:function ls perf stat -e ftrace:function ls Allowed only for root.

Adding a way to temporarily enable/disable ftrace_ops. The change follows the same way as 'global' ftrace_ops are done. Introducing 2 global ftrace_ops - control_ops and ftrace_control_list which take over all ftrace_ops registered with FTRACE_OPS_FL_CONTROL flag. In addition new per cpu flag called 'disabled' is also added to ftrace_ops to provide the control information for each cpu. When ftrace_ops with FTRACE_OPS_FL_CONTROL is registered, it is set as disabled for all cpus. The ftrace_control_list contains all the registered 'control' ftrace_ops. The control_ops provides function which iterates ftrace_control_list and does the check for 'disabled' flag on current cpu. Adding 3 inline functions: ftrace_function_local_disable/ftrace_function_local_enable - enable/disable the ftrace_ops on current cpu ftrace_function_local_disabled - get disabled ftrace_ops::disabled value for current cpu Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1329317514-8131-2-git-send-email-jolsa@redhat.comAcked-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

If more than one __print_*() function is used in a tracepoint (__print_flags(), __print_symbols(), etc), then the temp seq buffer will not be zero on entry. Using the temp seq buffer's length to know if data has been printed or not in the current function is incorrect and may produce incorrect results. Currently, no in-tree tracepoint causes this bug, but new ones may be created. Cc: Andrew Vagin <avagin@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

If __print_flags() is used after another __print_*() function, the temp seq_file buffer will not be empty on entry, and the delimiter will be printed even though there's just one field. We get something like: |S instead of just: S This is because the length of the temp seq buffer is used to determine if the delimiter is printed or not. But this algorithm fails when the seq buffer is not empty on entry, and the delimiter will be printed because it thinks that a previous field was already printed.

Added is a new static inline function that lets *any* tracepoint be used inside a rcu_idle_exit() section. And this also solves the problem where the same tracepoint may be used inside a rcu_idle_exit() section as well as outside of one. I added a new tracepoint function with a "_rcuidle" extension. All tracepoints can be used with either the normal "trace_foobar()" function, or the "trace_foobar_rcuidle()" function when inside a rcu_idle_exit() section. All tracepoints defined by TRACE_EVENT() or any of the derivatives will have a "_rcuidle()" function also defined. When a tracepoint is used within an rcu_idle_exit() section, the "_rcuidle()" version must be used. This denotes that the tracepoint is within rcu_idle_exit() and it allows the rcu read locks within the tracepoint to still be valid, as this version takes us out of rcu_idle_exit(). Another nice aspect about this patch is that "static inline"s are not compiled into text when not used. So only the tracepoints that actually use the _rcuidle() version will have them defined in the actual text that is booted.
